如果你今天沒有笑過,那就去見見達(dá)利斯吧,他是一只學(xué)畫畫的老鼠
We all have our talents and we should be proud of them. But when you’re a rat who paints, you should be… famous. And this little guy sure was. Darius the rat went viral on social media for his artistic abilities numerous times, and, even though he has passed away, his works still bring joy to people all over the world.
我們都有自己的天賦,我們應(yīng)該為他們感到驕傲。但當(dāng)你是一只畫畫的老鼠時(shí),你應(yīng)該……出名。這個(gè)小家伙確實(shí)是。老鼠達(dá)利斯因其藝術(shù)才能在社交媒體上走紅無數(shù)次,即使他已經(jīng)去世,他的作品仍然給世界各地的人們帶來歡樂。
“I had him in a weird time of my life where I was trying to figure out who I was as a person, and also where I should be going in life. He was my light in the darkness”
“我和他在一起的那段時(shí)間很奇怪,我想弄清楚自己是誰,也想知道自己的人生應(yīng)該走向何方。他是我黑暗中的光"

Amalie Markota Andersen, his owner, is an animation and digital arts student. After training her buddy to paint with his feet, she said it took Darius about 10 minutes to complete one piece and that she ultimately sold three or four of his works.
他的主人Amalie Markota Andersen是一名動(dòng)畫和數(shù)字藝術(shù)專業(yè)的學(xué)生。在訓(xùn)練她的伙伴用腳畫畫后,她說達(dá)利斯花了大約10分鐘完成了一幅作品,她最終賣掉了他的三四幅作品。
“I’ve had rats all my life, since I was around 14-15 years old,” she told Bored Panda. “I’ve discovered how great they are as pets on the internet. Rats were just beginning to become popular as pets, I think. After I had my first rat, I just kept on getting them. Rats don’t live very long, usually 2-3 years, so I’ve had 9 so far. Darius was one of them.”
她在接受Bored Panda網(wǎng)站采訪時(shí)說:“從14歲到15歲開始,我這輩子一直都養(yǎng)老鼠。”“我在網(wǎng)上發(fā)現(xiàn)它們是多么棒的寵物。我想老鼠剛開始成為流行的寵物。當(dāng)我有了第一只老鼠后,我就一直在養(yǎng)。老鼠的壽命不長,通常是2-3年,所以到目前為止我已經(jīng)養(yǎng)了9只。達(dá)利斯就是其中之一。”

When Amalie had Darius, she got a non-toxic watercolor set, dipped his feet in it and just let him walk back and forth on the paper until it started to look like something.
當(dāng)Amalie有了達(dá)利斯,她得到了一套無毒的水彩畫,把他的腳浸在里面,讓他在紙上來回走動(dòng),直到它開始看起來像什么東西。
“I got him in 2017, he was one of many rats in the litter. All the rats seemed amazing, but Darius was just too precious not to choose. He looked so kind and gentle, I instantly fell in love with him the moment I saw him.”
“我是在2017年抓到它的,它是窩里眾多老鼠中的一只。所有的老鼠似乎都很神奇,但達(dá)利斯太珍貴了,無法選擇。他看起來那么善良和溫柔,我一看到他就愛上了他。”

Photos of Darius resurfaced on Twitter on Saturday after they were shared by a now-private account. However, Andersen documented Darius’ creative process on Tumblr even before that. Andersen wrote on Tumblr that Darius made his first painting in January 2018.
上周六,達(dá)利斯的照片在Twitter上再次出現(xiàn),此前這些照片被一個(gè)現(xiàn)已成為私人賬號(hào)的用戶分享。然而,安徒生甚至在那之前就在Tumblr上記錄了達(dá)利斯的創(chuàng)作過程。安徒生在Tumblr上寫道,達(dá)利斯于2018年1月完成了自己的第一幅畫作。

She said, in a way, Darius was a weird rat. Unlike all the others she has had. “He was very timid and shy. He didn’t like exploring much like rats usually do. He was just fine cuddling in my lap or sleeping in my bed. He wasn’t very independent, always clinging to me like a little baby. He was very attached to me and obviously I got very attached to him as well, which made it very hard for me to let him go when the time came.”
她說,在某種程度上,達(dá)利斯是一只奇怪的老鼠。不像她所有的朋友。他非常膽小怕事。他不像通常的老鼠那樣喜歡探險(xiǎn)。他依偎在我的膝蓋上或者睡在我的床上都很好。他不是很獨(dú)立,總是像個(gè)小嬰兒一樣緊緊抱住我。他非常喜歡我,顯然我也非常喜歡他,這讓我很難在時(shí)機(jī)成熟時(shí)讓他離開。”

As Darius’ internet fame grew, Andersen kinda became his manager. But in a totally good way. After selling his works, Andersen used the money to buy Darius a harness so that she could take him outdoors and the two of them could explore the outdoors safely.
隨著達(dá)利斯在網(wǎng)上的名氣越來越大,安徒生成了他的經(jīng)紀(jì)人。但以一種完全好的方式。安徒生賣掉他的作品后,用這筆錢給達(dá)利斯買了一副馬具,這樣就可以帶達(dá)利斯去戶外,他們兩個(gè)就可以安全地在戶外探險(xiǎn)了。
